Soulstamps are the main medium for enacting a Forgery. They are used to stamp an object with a seal, which changes the object's past in a way described by the design of the stamp.{{tes ref|3}} The seal left by the stamp itself is also called a soulstamp.{{tes ref|2}} If the new history that the stamp implies is convincing enough the stamp will take and hold indefinitely. If not, the stamp will fail after an amount of time relative to the similarity of the histories. When failing, the soulstamp will evaporate and the subject will revert to normal.{{tes ref|12}} The subject will also turn back to normal if the soulstamp is forcefully taken off.{{tes ref|3}} A plausible enough stamp will stay nearly permanently. The more people who know of a Forgery, the more likely it is to fail.{{tes ref|3}} There are power modifiers for soulstamps similar to power modifiers for [[AonDor]].{{wob ref|129}}
 
Universal stamps can be used on any relevant object without being programmed with it in mind, but will not last more than a few minutes.{{book ref|mb7|42}} However, if imbued with more Investiture, the period in which they last can be extended.{{book ref|mb7|53}} They can be reused multiple times.
 
Soulstamps using Invested Ink can be used even off-world, bypassing the normal geographic limitation of Selish systems.{{book ref|mb7|42}}
